Oh and I steam the peppers before stuffing/baking in a big pot of boiling water for about 5 minutes ~ makes them nice and tender!0 -
hi,
you can stuff vege like zukinis, tomato, bell pepper, eggplant with a stuffing made of ground beef/turkey plus the inside of these vege, oignon, 1 egg and some bread wet in milk.
You cut each vege in 2 in the length, stuff them, cover with low fat mozza and bake 45min 1 hour in the oven !
Enjoy your meal0 -
Oh and I discovered the meat bread when I arrived in Canada ! Delicious and so convenient to take away for lunch !0

I just came on this board to share my ground turkey/beef burger! Maybe people already know this one, but omg it's so good.
So what I do because I cook for one is...
1/2 lb ground meat (I used turkey tonight and it was delicioussss)
1/4 cup shredded cheese
1 T lipton onion soup mix, or generic (I eyeballed this,so basically to taste)
2T water
Mash it all up and pan fry it as a burger! It was so juicy and delicious. I want more right now. I've done it with beef too.0 -

Make some mini meat loaves in muffin tins. Since the meat is already frozen at this point, experiment with one package...a pound or so. There are tons of recipes out there. I never use bread, as I find uncooked old fashioned oat meal (or whatever you have on hand, the minute type works fine) is a great binder. I use Egg Land egg whites all the time, but you can use whole eggs. I also lightly saute all kinds of vegetables to bulk it up and make it really healthy. I don't think there is a veggie you can't use. I routinely add onion, peppers, mushrooms and summer squash, but whatever you have. Just par-cook it, cool it down and thow it in. Then the spices, again check some recipes, but anything goes: Worcestershire, mustard, ketchup, italian seasoning, anything savory...just go for it. Then bake them in muffin tins, weighing the meat weight so you can figure the calorie/food numbers. Meatloaf is a meal, a sandwich, refried with egg whites or in an omlette for breakfast. Meatloaf is a dieter's friend because you can make it very, very healthfully. think protein! Good luck!0

I always recommend this to people who are looking for something to do with ground beef:
http://www.food.com/recipe/quinoa-beef-picadillo-256268
It's a good basic recipe, and easy to change up a bit for variety. I often will add greens, especially kale, or other vegetables, or add other flavorings, like chipotles in adobo sauce. Usually when I make it, the calorie count turns out to be lower than that listed on the above site. Without the quinoa added (last time I made it to serve with some leftover brown rice, so I left out the quinoa, but added kale), 1 serving (1/6th of the recipe, 220g) was 276 calories.
ETA: Aww, someone already recommended picadillo :sad:0 -
Big mac casserole!0

We make something I like to call loosely "Texas Hash". It has a "Mexican flair" to it. Ingredients are simple; ground beef, lettuce/tomatoes, onion (optional), taco seasoning mix, cooked rice (optional), shredded cheddar cheese.
First, brown your ground beef and onions(optional). You drain the fat. Then, put in the taco seasoning mix and water. When fully heated, lower heat. If you are having rice (I prefer brown rice), get this ready while browning the ground beef. When finished, put the rice on the plates and ladle the browned, taco spiced ground beef over it. Put the lettuce/tomatoes around the beef and rice. Sprinkle cheddar cheese on top.
My kids loved this dish! So easy to make and good too! As a family, we went over to turkey ground for a healthier option and tastes just as good. . I am now trying Morningstar crumbles as a substitute since it's low in calories.0 -

I use ground turkey for lean cabbage rolls! yum!0

Good idea - steaming the peppers before baking. I like stuffed peppers and my family gives me the nah when I mention them. Maybe i'll get a yah if a fork can cut through the pepper0

I suggest making a ground turkey and ground beef meatloaf. Instead of breadcrumbs, substitute with oatmeal. It's tasty and with onions, garlic, parsley and some red pepper flakes, it satisfies the whole family! Serve with roasted sweet potatoes and some steamed greens. I sometimes sautee mushrooms and top it with that. My husband asks for it :-)0

taco soup or chili. I also make homemade stroganoff with ground beef sometimes. Another thing I do is make patties mixed with onion soup mix for a "salisbury steak" with gravy.0

Skinny Taste has a lot of good recipes using ground beef/turkey. I've made the Stuffed Pepper Soup and it is AMAZING!! Lasagna soup is also good. If you don't want to do soup, you could make some healthy sloppy joe's.0

I've made the patties with onion mix plus an egg to help keep it together. There was no other way to 'grill' them after that!0
